Onclick Event pass value to iFrame Form

[dude9er]

I have a page called "Search.aspx" that includes a repeater control which has a link within the repeater. The link uses fancyzoom to popup a hidden div, the hidden div uses an iFrame to call "form.aspx".

I need to pass a value pulled from the DB using <%#Container.DataItem("hotelName")%> to the "form.aspx" in the iFrame.

Here's my code so far:

LINK

<a href='#<%#Container.DataItem("id")%>' OnClick="LinkButton1_Click">More Info</a>

CODE BEHIND FOR SEARCH.ASPX

Protected Sub LinkButton1_Command(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As CommandEventArgs)

        
        Dim hotelName As String = Request.Form("hotelName")

        'do I convert hotelName to a Private Querystring?

    End Sub

CODE BEHIND FOR FORM.ASPX

Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load

        Dim hotelName As String = Request.QueryString("hotelName")

    End Sub

Can someone lead me in the right direction please. This mind boggling.

Thanks!

Not possible. I didn't even read your post, because the title contains the answer. Unfortunately it's not possible to control or manipulate anything inside of an <iframe>. In some outdated browsers that don't support the idea of security it might be possible, but in newer ones, you only have a window object to control, which is the window you're in. The other way around however is possible. A page loaded from within an iframe can control the window loading the page it's in.

for instance:

window.parent.location = 'http://sitepoint.com/';
